[quote=Anonymous]Everyone is focusing on the pre-nup - logical - but I don't think it's really the issue right now. The issue is the current costs of taxes and repairs. Is $15k your husband's part of that bill or is the $15k split between all current owners? Because if it's $15k a year per owner, that's a LOT of money going into this sentimental property. At least $45k given that your husband has siblings.

Before you get to the pre-nup aspect I think you need to get to the cost aspect - can you afford this year over year, especially if costs rise (they never seem to go down). If you can, or if you agree that this family cabin is important enough to invest in, then I think you revisit the pre-nup and have it amended to reflect a fair interest based on the use of marital funds. Your husband should be willing to broach that topic with his family. Things have changed. Their trust money ran out. It made a lot of sense that you'd have no claim in the event of divorce when someone else's money was paying for this cabin. That's no longer the case.[/quote]
